are there any online phonics programs ?

i have a 6 year old little boy who i suspect is dyslexic (we are going through the channels with the school ).

he is currently behind with his school work to the stage where they regularly take him from year 2 down to year 1 to learn his phonics, he is a sensitive child who has been getting bullied and this obviously isn't helping the matter so i have been looking for something to help him with at home .i don't think we can afford a private tutor nor would i know where to find one so does anyone know of any online phonics programs or somewhere i can look or a tutor for him we are in londonthank you (sorry for the spelling/grammer)

Why not ask school if they could make you a copy of Ruth miskin cards, then go on youtube and search for mr Thorne does phonics. You can then learn the sounds at home with him.The Ruth muslin website also has good resources.Phonics play is also a good website and I think they will allow you access up to level 3 without subscribing. Good luck

thank you for your reply i will look into the website suggested i didn't think to ask the school i will get onto that tomorrow and see what they can do they aren't helpful at the best of times so fingers crossed.

My DD enjoyed playing "teach your monster to read". That was phonics based games on the pc. I think the CBeebies website also has alphablock games that I have heard good things about but not tried myself.

But for something rather more 'academic' I think you would find this a worthwhile investment:

An inexpensive and easy to use book, that can encourage children with reading, spelling and writing, and really help them to understand Phonics, is reviewed in the MN Book Reviews section. Just search ‘Phonics’.
